Great to see the spider photos showing up again. It must be spring!
Very nice photo, Adi. It appears to be = Entelegynes » Orb Weavers (Araneidae) » Gasteracantha » Spinybacked Orbweaver (Gasteracantha cancriformis) from BugGuide.net This is a good example of the web designs (not Internet webdesign ) that are the reason they are called Orb Weavers. About 3500 species of OW.

We had a Spiders thread going for awhile but it fades away in the winter.

Thanks for finding out the exact name of this Spider Species they do call as Spiny Orb Weavers, Physically they look very scary but actually they are very harmless little creature.

Orbweavers are generally harmless and can be a nuisance when they build large webs in places inconvenient for humans. Despite their formidable appearance, orb weaver spiders are not considered dangerous.
